Bill Clinton Smarter than Obama
Early in his first term, President Bill Clinton created a commission headed by Hillary Clinton to overhaul health care in the United States. He met fierce opposition. Since he was a wise and crafty politician, he backed off and pursued other matters. As a result, he was reelected to a second term and is remembered fondly by Democrats and even some Republicans. (At the time, I disliked Bill Clinton, but he has grown on me. He has become very respectable as a senior statesman. His image is enhanced, by the contrast between him and the ridiculous Jimmy Carter.)
If you compare Bill Clinton to President Barack Hussein Obama, you realize that you are dealing with a less crafty politician. Obama is more of an ideologue than Bill Clinton ever was. He is also stubborn and portrays an image of smug superiority that I find appalling. I believe that Obama genuinely thinks that his ideas and plans are better than anyone else’s and that they should be pursued and implemented regardless of what others think or feel about it. To me, that sounds like a classic dictator and not a United States President. (Now you know why I included his middle name in the first sentence.)
I am hoping that moderate Democrats in the House and Senate realize that the populace does not want bigger government. It does not want a government that runs health care and it absolutely does not want another trillion dollars of deficit spending. I hope that there is a lesson learned from the elections in Virginia and New Jersey where Republicans trounced Democrats.
Americans are angry and are demonstrating that anger. Just look at this video of the march on Washington, D.C.:
If Democrats and particularly Obama, Pelosi and Reid do not back off, in 2010 they will face the most devastating elections that the Democratic party has ever seen. Then in 2012, Obama will also lose his job. That is almost guaranteed.
